Topic: A much needed update (Read 12905 times)

Yaay it's back, and up to date finally.Sorry about the downtime, the forum was getting hammered by Chinese spam bots which were making accounts for themselves. Infact they were making 1000 new accounts on here per day. They were just never actually logging in with them because we had modified our forum to require full email address to login. Which you should no longer need to do.

Anyway a lot of maintenance had to be done to get it back up and running so that's why it was down for so long. We're also on a new server so it should be a lot faster although we're still moving things across so the forum is the only thing on this new server at the moment.

Stryfe is still fixing up some some things so if there's any strange issues just report them here and we can look into it.

The Dark style theme is still unavailable while that's being fixed.

The Thankyou mod (which was actually one of the things preventing us upgrading easily) had to be dropped but we found another mod that's similar and we'll try to hack it to work as the thankyou mod did, possibly.The thankyou's are still in the database, we just have to modify this "like" mod to use them instead of it's own.

I hope i'm posting in the right spot. For some reason, even after clearing my history and my cookies, the site still gives me this "Maintenance Mode: ..um boobs? wait, sorry we are having some issues atm, please try again later." I'm currently replying to this post via a proxy, which allowed me access into the website. I live in the West coast of USA. Is this my issue only?

^ That's cause it's still hitting the old server. It's most likely the DNS change hasn't updated for everyone. You can try running ipconfig /flushdns from command prompt and see if that fixes it but otherwise it should be back to normal within 24hours.

Never had this issue before, don't know what the FF specs are but it's version 30.0 which is their most updated version. Using Chrome or Internet Explorer there are borders when writing a post but really don't like using either one for here, been using FF for many years and never had a problem until this latest update.

Hello... Just a simple question.. Is there any way to view the full list of the people who left thanks on your post? If I have like more than 13-14 thanks in my post, the name list just gets cut off at the very bottom.. Just a suggestion.. Maybe the moderators can make the list scrollable(?) Coz sometimes, I might be curious of who left a thanks in my post
